In this essay, Byung-Chol Han, turning to the views of the most prominent thinkers of the 20th century who were interested in the topic of violence, outlines a symptomatic picture of the global capitalist society of the 21st century. Han proposes to see a cascade of continuous transformations in the history of violence. Today, the executioner and the victim coexist in each of us, and violence itself becomes positive and merges to the point of indistinguishability with its opposite - freedom. Can the efficiency and productivity that everyone strives for in a highly competitive labor market be considered violence? Is the luxurious lifestyle of a successful person really self-violence? What to do to become healthier and happier? Like any good philosophical book, “The Topology of Violence” offers a fairly broad perspective in order to pose these questions and try to find answers to them. The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format.
